< Luke 22 >
1 And the feast of the unleavened bread, called the passover, was nigh.
Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the passover.
2 And the chief priests and scribes were seeking how they might kill Him; for they feared the people.

3 And Satan entered into Judas called Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.
Then entred Satan into Judas who was surnamed Iscariot, one of the twelve.
4 And having gone away, he spoke with the chief priests and the magistrates, how he might betray Him to them.
And he went and conferred with the chief priests and the captains, how he might betray Him unto them.
5 And they rejoiced, and promised to give him money.
And they were glad and agreed to give him money:
6 And he promised them, and was seeking an opportunity to deliver Him unto them in the absence of the multitude.
and he accepted the terms, and sought an opportunity to betray Him unto them in the absence of the multitude.
7 And the day of the unleavened bread came, in which it behooved to slay the passover.
The day of unleavened bread being come, on which the paschal-lamb was to be slain,
8 And He sent Peter and John, saying, Going prepare for us the passover, in order that we may eat it.
Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare the passover for us, that we may eat of it.
9 And they said to Him, Where do you wish that we may prepare it?
And they said unto Him, Where wouldst thou have us prepare it?
10 And He said to them, Behold, you having come into the city, a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he is going.
And He said unto them, Behold, when ye are come into the city, there shall meet you a man, carrying a pitcher of water, follow him into the house where he entreth:
11 And say to the landlord, The Teacher says to thee, Where is the guest-chamber, where I may eat the passover with my disciples?
and say to the master of the house, Our Master inquireth by us, Where is the room, in which I may eat the passover with my disciples?
12 And he will show you a large upper room furnished: there prepare.
And he will shew you a large upper room set out; there make it ready.
13 And having gone away, they found as He told them; and prepared the passover.
And they went and found as He had told them; and prepared the passover.
14 And when the hour arrived, He sat down and the apostles along with Him.
And when the hour was come, He sat down and the twelve apostles with Him.
15 And He said to them, I desired with desire to eat this passover with you before I suffer: for I say to you,
And He said unto them, I have earnestly desired to eat of this passover with you before I suffer:
16 I eat this no more, until it may be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.
for I say unto you, that I will not eat of it any more, till it be accomplished in the kingdom of God.
17 And receiving the cup, having given thanks, He said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves;
And taking the cup He gave thanks and said, Take this and distribute it among yourselves.
18 for I say to you, I shall from now drink no more from the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God may come.
For I tell you, that I will not drink again of the fruit of the vine, till the kingdom of God shall come.
19 And taking bread, blessing it, He broke it, and gave it to them, saying, This is my body given for you: do this in remembrance of me.
And He took bread, and gave thanks and brake it, and gave it to them, saying, This is my body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of me:
20 Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out in your behalf.
as also the cup after supper, saying, This cup represents the new covenant in my blood, which is shed for you.
21 Moreover behold, the hand of the one betraying me is with me at the table.
And yet behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is at table with me:
22 Indeed the Son of man goes, according to that which has been appointed: but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!
and the Son of man is going indeed as was determined; but wo to that man by whom He is betrayed.
23 And they began to inquire among themselves, who then of them is the one of them about to do this.
And they began to enquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do it.
24 And there was a contention among them, which one of them seems to be the greater,
And there was also a dispute among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest:
25 And He said to them, The kings of the Gentiles domineer over them; and those exercising authority over them are called Benefactors.
but He said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those in authority are called benefactors.
26 But you are not thus: but let the greater among you be as the younger; and the leader as the waiter.
But ye shall not do so: but let the greatest among you be as the younger; and he that presides as he that serveth.
27 For which is the greater, he that sitteth at the table, or the waiter? is not the one sitting? but I am in the midst of you as the waiter.
For which is greater, he that sitteth at table, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at table? but I am among you as one that serveth.
28 But you are those who have remained with me in my temptations.
Ye have continued with me in my temptations;
29 And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father appointed unto me,
and I appoint you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me:
30 in order that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom; and you shall sit upon thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit upon thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
31 Simon, Simon, behold, Satan sought you out, to sift you as wheat:
And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you my disciples, that he may sift you as wheat:
32 but I prayed for you, that your faith may not fail you: and thou, when having turned, strengthen thy brethren:
but I have prayed for thee, that thy faith may not fail; and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.
33 but he said to Him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee to prison and to death.
And he said unto Him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee both to prison and to death.
34 And He said; I say unto thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.
But He replied, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before thou hast thrice denied that thou knowest me.
35 Then He said to them, When I sent you without purse, and valise, and sandals, did you lack anything? And they said; Nothing.
And He said unto them, When I sent you forth without purse, or bag, or shoes, did ye want any thing? and they said, Nothing.
36 And He said to them; But now, let the one having a purse, take it, likewise also valise: and let the one having no sword, sell his cloak and buy one.
Then said He unto them, But now let him, that hath a purse, take it, and his bag likewise; and let him that has no sword, sell his garment and buy one:
37 For I say unto you, that it behooves that which has been written to be perfected in me, this, And He was numbered with the transgressors: for indeed that which is concerning me has an end.
for I tell you, that this which is written must yet be accomplished in me, "And He was numbered with transgressors," for the things foretold concerning me are near at an end.
38 And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And He said to them, It is sufficient.
And they said, Lord, behold here are two swords. And He said unto them, It is enough.
39 And having gone out, He departed, according to custom, into the Mount of Olives; and His disciples followed Him.
And He came out and went, as He used to do, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed Him.
40 He being at the place, He said to them, Pray that you enter not into temptation.
And when He was at the place, He said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation.
41 And He was separated from them about a stone's cast; and putting down His knees, continued to pray,
And when He was withdrawn from them about a stone's-cast, He kneeled down and prayed saying,
42 saying, Father, if this cup is willing to pass from me; moreover let not my will, but thine be done.
Father, if thou art willing take away this cup from me---nevertheless, not my will but thine be done.
43 And an angel from heaven appeared unto Him, strengthening Him.
And there appeared to Him an angel from heaven strengthening Him.
44 And being in agony He continued to pray the more earnestly. And His sweat was like drops of blood falling down upon the ground.
And being in agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was like clotted blood falling down upon the ground.
45 And having risen from prayer, having come to His disciples, He found them sleeping on account of weariness,
And when He rose up from prayer, He came to his disciples and found them sleeping for sorrow;
46 and He said to them, Why do you sleep? Arising pray, that you may not enter into temptation.
and He said to them, Why do ye sleep? rise and pray, that ye enter not into temptation.
47 And He still speaking, behold, a multitude and the one called Judas, one of the twelve, was coming before them; and he drew near to Jesus to kiss Him.
And while He was yet speaking, behold a multitude; and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve apostles, came before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss Him:
48 And Jesus said to him, Judas, do you betray the Son of man with a kiss?
and Jesus said to him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?
49 And those around Him seeing what was coming on Him, said, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?
But when they that were about Him saw what would follow, they said to Him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?
50 And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.
And one of them smote the high priest's servant and cut off his right ear:
51 And Jesus responding said, Hold on until this: and touching his ear, healed him.
but Jesus said, Suffer ye thus far; and He touched his ear and healed him.
52 Jesus said to the high priests, and magistrates of the temple, and elders who were assembled to Him; You have come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs.
Then said Jesus to the chief priests, and officers of the temple, and elders, that were come to Him, Are ye come out as against a robber with swords and clubs?
53 I being daily with you in the temple, you reached not out your hands unto me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.
When I was day after day with you in the temple, ye did not stretch out your hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.
54 And taking Him, they led Him away, and led Him into the house of the chief priest. And Peter followed Him a long way off.
Then they took Him and led Him away, and brought Him to the high priest's. And Peter followed at a distance.
55 And having lighted a fire in the midst of the court, and they sitting together, Peter was sitting in the midst of them.
And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and sat down together, Peter also sat down among them:
56 And a certain maidservant, seeing him sitting at the fire, and fixing her eyes on him, said, This man was with Him.
and a servant-maid seeing him as he sat by the fire, and looking hard at him, said, This fellow was also with Him:
57 And he denied Him, saying, Woman, I know Him not.
But he denied Him, saying, Woman, I do not know Him.
58 And after a brief interval another seeing him, said, Truly, thou art one of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.
And after a little while another person seeing him said, And thou art one of them: but Peter said, Man, I am not.
59 And about one hour having elapsed, a certain other man accosted him, saying, He was truly with Him: for he is a Galilean.
And about an hour after, another confidently affirmed saying, In truth this fellow also was with Him; for he is a Galilean too: but Peter answered,
60 And Peter said, Man, I know Him not. And immediately, he yet speaking, the cock crew.
Man, I know not what thou sayst. And immediately, while he was yet speaking, the cock crew.
61 And the Lord turning, looked upon Peter; and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He said to him, that, Before the cock shall crow thou shalt deny me thrice.
And the Lord turned and looked upon Peter; and Peter called to mind the word of the Lord, how He had said to him, Before the cock crow thou wilt deny me thrice.
62 And having gone out, he wept bitterly.
And Peter went out and wept bitterly.
63 And the men having Him, began to mock, beating Him,
And the men that laid hold on Jesus, insulted and abused Him;
64 and covering Him, they continued to ask saying, Prophesy, who is the one smiting thee.
and when they had blind-folded Him, they struck Him on the face, and asked Him, saying, Prophesy who it was that smote thee.
65 And blaspheming, they continued to speak many other things against Him.
And many other things spake they against Him, blaspheming Him.
66 And when it was day, the eldership of the people was convened, and the chief priests and scribes, and they led Him into their sanhedrim.
And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people, and chief-priests, and scribes, assembled together, and ordered Him up into their council:
67 Saying, If thou art the Christ, tell us. And He said to them, If I may tell you, you will not believe:
and said to Him, Art thou the Messiah? tell us. And He said unto them, If I should tell you, ye would not believe:
68 and if indeed I will ask you, you will not respond to me, or release me.
and if I should put any question to you, ye would not answer me, nor discharge me.
69 And from now the Son of man shall be sitting on the right hand of the power of God.
But hereafter shall the Son of man be seated on the right hand of the power of God.
70 And all said, Art thou the Son of God? And He said to them, You say that I am.
And they all said, Art thou then the Son of God?
71 And they said, Why have we yet need of testimony? for we heard from His own mouth.
And He said unto them, I am. And they said, What need have we of any farther evidence? when we ourselves have it from his own mouth?
